the Sun 11-30am today

Better photo than mine on my blog lol. Its Storm Orphelia blowing in the Sahara desert sands which makes the moon look red.

Oh wow, and so warm too.

Wonderful image.

A strange sight...I wonder what our ancestors would have made of it?

Oh yeah...really was red wasn’t it. Great picture Brian.

How did you manage to get such a good photo of the red sun? With my mobile phone's camera, I only managed to get a pale white dot in the sky!

I tried to "tweak" it with Picasa 3, the programme I use to put the titles on my photos, but it didn't make enough difference so I deleted the 2 photos I had taken as not worth keeping!

I used zoom on my Panasonic camera and cropped it in photo shop.I find photos taken are not that good at long distance on my phone,don't think the tiny lens is up to it. That is an apple phone and afraid it tries to be a few things it is not.

The cameraphone is now the only camera I have. I wasn't expecting anything marvellous from it but I thought if I try to enhance it using Picasa 3 then I might get something worth saving but, unfortunately, it made practically no difference over the original so I deleted them.

This is a lovely shot, well done xx
